This weekend, at the 2013 San Diego Comic Con (SDCC), Neil Gaiman made some HUGE announcements about coming back to his “Sandman” character for DC Comics’ Vertigo line. He will write the books and the interior art will be done by J. H. Williams III. The cover art (example up above ) is by Dave McKean and he will do a few other covers as well. This is great news, especially considering that the original comic books came out 25 years ago (circa 1988) and now we get to revisit that world and those amazing characters. The six-issue series starts this October and will be released bi-monthly. Yeah, we’re drooling already and can’t wait!! For more info just check out the video down below:

The San Diego Comic Con has not even busted loose yet ( they all go wacky koo-koo crazy on the weekend, ha! ) and already the SUPER-HUGE news to break out is that Neil Gaiman will be returning to his popular character, The SANDMAN! Yes, Neil Gaiman is set to start writing new stories!! It’s also important to note that J.H. Williams will be doing the Illustration so you know it’s gonna look AWESOME! Now, Neil was not even actually at the event but made the announcement via video conference from the DC Comics Vertigo Offices in New York City. OK, Maybe you think this news is too good to be true and you don’t believe us? Well down below is the video, check it out!!

Also, since this post is sort of about the 2012 SDCC event I thought it would be cool to share this photo of what the PANTHEON BOOKS Booth looks like. Check it out, pretty snazzy! They have been saying that the attendance is crazy & Graphic Novels are flying all over the place! So, if you’re there this weekend please be sure to visit Booth #1515. Chip Kidd, among other Authors, will be there signing books.
